Paris Saint-Germain's Mbappé Scores Hat-Tricks and Loses 5-0, Setting New Record for Season Goals

In the recent match against Paris Saint-Germain, Neymar Jr. scored two hat-tricks, making him the first player to score three goals in one match since Lionel Messi did so in the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Meanwhile, Kylian Mbappé also scored a hat-trick, marking his second hat-trick of the season.

The match was a nail-biter as both teams were on top at halftime. However, PSG managed to secure a 5-0 win over their rivals.

In terms of goal-scoring, Mbappé is currently the joint-leading scorer with eight goals this season. This marks a new record for the club, as they have never recorded more than five goals in a single match before.

However, there has been controversy surrounding the match. PSG manager Mauricio Pochettino criticized Neymar Jr. for scoring two hat-tricks without any injuries or foul play. He said that it was "unacceptable" for Neymar to be involved in such high-scoring games.

Despite the criticism, Neymar Jr. defended his performance and claimed that he had been given enough time off due to injury. He also pointed out that the team had played well throughout the game and that the referee had called for a penalty shootout after the first half ended.

It remains to be seen how this incident will affect the match results. But for now, the match serves as a reminder of the importance of discipline and respect for opponents' players.
